Practice Areas
Our work focuses on challenging systems that exploit workers, consumers, and communities.
CONSUMER RIGHTS
We challenge unlawful practices by banks, lenders, debt collectors, and fintechs that strip wealth from working families through predatory lending, illegal junk fees, and deceptive schemes.
TENANT RIGHTS
We fight for tenants facing illegal junk fees, unlawful evictions, and discriminatory housing practices at the hands of predatory landlords and corporate investors driving the affordable housing crisis.
WORKERS' RIGHTS
We represent workers subjected to wage theft, illegal misclassification, invasive monitoring programs, and algorithmic wage-setting. Our litigation targets employers and industries that profit from exploitation, pursuing recovery for workers while challenging the systemic practices that keep wages low and working conditions unsafe.
CIVIL RIGHTS
We litigate on behalf of individuals and communities whose civil rights have been violated by powerful institutions — from discriminatory lending to the criminalization of poverty and the unlawful use of fines and fees. Our work challenges the legal and financial systems that perpetuate inequality across race, class, and geography.
